CONT

Mechanisms of immunological escape address the central paradox of tumour immunology which is why neoplasms which are demonstrably immunogenic elude the effector arm of the immune response. Immunological escape may occur when the balance between factors favouring tumour growth and destruction is tilted in favour of the tumour. ... The factors that may contribute to immunological escape include tumour kinetics, antigenic modulation, antigen masking, blocking factors, tolerance, genetic factors, tumour products, and growth factors.
